COOL STORY!! | Long Cool Woman - The Hollies (Reactions ) 

"He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"--not just for the Hollies' performance but for the song itself, one of the most inspiring, meaningful and important songs of the '60s.

One of the most under rated groups with a large catelog

I love seeing someone younger just discover this music, the 60's and 70' were just SO GREAT to be alive. The early rock and roll was ground breaking, but then the 60's and 70's it just took off....

Love this group. The Hollies are a British pop rock group formed in 1962 & known for their great harmonies. They had so many hit songs such as "Bus Stop", "Stop Stop Stop", "The Air That I Breathe", "He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother", "On A Carousel", "Carrie Anne", "Here I Go Again", "Look Through Any Window", "King Midas In Reverse", "Jennifer Eccles" etc. "Graham Nash" was originally in this group & left in 1968 to form "Crosby, Stills & Nash".

This song makes you feel like driving fast and taking chances!!

The Air That I Breathe

The air that I breath is a wonderful song! I hope you check it out. Highly recommend! ✌️❤️

Did you ever hear, "He ain' heavy, he's my brother " by the Hpllies? You've got to hear that. It was played at my brother's memorial service, I totally lost it.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother. Another great song of the Hollies

Old school can't beat it🎉

They're known for their mid 60's hits like Bus Stop & Carrie Anne . The ever Tear jerker "He ain't heavy , He's my Brother

One of my all-time favorite classics! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did, my friend!

i believe this is the first time since this song came out on the radio that i have ever heard the lyrics clearly.

I love many of The Hollies hits but this one by far is my favorite. It has a special swag.

REMEMBER THE TITANS⚡️ 😎💪🤙

Cool Tune, Cool Reaction, Cool all around COOL.

This is such a jam. 😎

That long cool woman had it all! And it was all in the right places!

Love the Hollies man!!!

Lyrics are a must with this song. 😀

Quality.

I never get tired of this song. Simple but awesome. HAD IT ALL!

Good reaction to a timeless song.👍

Just love your reactions!! Glad I found you....... you're one of the best at breaking down the songs! Thanks!!

Graham Nash of Crosby, Stills, & Nash started off as a member of The Hollies. But he's not on this 1972 classic. He left the band in 1968. You can hear him on The Hollies classic 1966 hit "Bus Stop". "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" got a lot of radio play in the early seventies, because it grooves, but also likely because it filled the gap that opened after Creedence Clearwater Revival broke up. Another tune, a bit older, with a similar thematic vibe is Johnny Rivers "Secret Agent Man".

I love it each when that kicks in. Song kinda reminds me of CCR.

Note J:ohn Fogerty of the band Creedence Clearwater Revival tried to sue the British band the Hollies for their 1972 song "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" because he thought it infringed on their trademark sound used in the CCR song "Green River". .

Awesome job bud. Very cool.

Guitarist Tony Hicks is the father of Paul Hicks, who is in a band with Dhani Harrison, George Harrison's son, thenewno2. Paul works with the son of Beatles' producer George Martin, in all the new remixes coming out of the Beatles' catalogue albums.

One of the original members of the Hollies was Graham Nash, later the "N" in CSN(Y).

This song makes me think of Viet Nam . I have a picture in my mind of GIs in a jungle base camp trying to chillax while listening to Armed Forces radio !

Great band! Bus Stop, Tell Me to My Face, Stop Stop Stop, After the Fox...

Another classic , keep on jammin !

The Hollies have quite a few hits and they sound very different from each other. Good rabbit hole to dive in.

Love love this song ❤🔥anyone remember the football scene where they played this song in the movie Remember The Titans

Bus stop❤❤

one of my favorite classic rock songs but I've never heard a major song that had this much echo on the vocal.

❤

❤😅

Anutha jam!
